System of a Down found fame with music based on politics. In 2005, the band released the album Mezmerize as an attack on the current U.S. government. The String Quartet's musical cover of that album is focused on an amazing sound instead.

The only complaint about the String Quartet Tribute CD is the sound is not as full as it could be. This, however, does not take away from how great the music is.

Though it is not the typical music for most college students, it will grow on you at an unbelievable rate as the type of music that gives you chills at a live performance.
